THD is for Tegra 2-powered games

The Motorola Xoom and its built-in Nvidia Tegra 2 dual-core processor promise to deliver a new level of gaming experience. That said we are not surprised that the games slated to hit the platform got a special suffix THD. That "T" is obviously for "Tegra" but the problem is that other chip makers like Qualcomm and Texas Instruments will also launch their own dual and even quad-core mobile processors. I guess Nvidia reaps the benefits of being the first company to commercially launch a dual-core CPU, hence the THD suffix.

Anyway, among the first games optimized to sing along Tegra 2-powered tablets, we find Fruit Ninja, Backbreaker and Samurai II: Vengeance. Glu has also demoed few of its popular titles on the Moto Xoom and I am sure other major publishers are lining up as we speak.

In addition to Tegra-exclusive titles, some companies talk about Tegra-exclusive content. For instance, Dungeon Defenders: First Wave Deluxe comes with additional missions, enemies, bosses, pets, and weapons when played on the Xoom-like device.
